In Canada, 5,168 of the country’s 5,841 charging stations are fast-charge capable. Go Compare didn’t note whether those 5,168 chargers are comprised of both level two and three chargers or just level three chargers.

By comparison, Go Compare found that there are 11,948 regular gas stations in the country.

Canada still has a ways to go in terms of charging infrastructure, but the good news is that both public and private entities are working to improve the situation.

While 5,841 seems like a lot of stations, it’s one station for every four to five EVs. The number also means that there is fewer than one charging station for every 100km of road in Canada.

Canada is notably one of the few countries with more fast-charging stations compared to slow charge stations.

For comparison, China has four stations per every 100 km which makes sense since it also has 213,903 chargers — the most in the world.

The US has fewer than one charger per 100km as well, even though it has 45,868 chargers.
